Chapter 717: Extreme Death Altar

"Miss Liuli, what was that situation just now?" Inside the Mysterious Shop, Itsuka Kotori looked at Liuli beside her with a puzzled expression.

Just a moment ago, she had seen Lingyun seemingly turn the space around himself, Takamiya Mio, and Westcott into a black-and-white space, and then, with a flash of light, all three of them had vanished from the sky simultaneously.

"Lingyun used his current power to create a world; you can think of it as a temporary Boundary. He used this world to drag Westcott and Takamiya Mio inside. That way, the battle between them won't affect this world!" Liuli opened her hand, the Destruction Scythe appeared in her grasp, and she explained to Itsuka Kotori.

"Waya!"

A startled cry rang out from beside Itsuka Shido. Itsuka Kotori turned her head to look, only to find Itsuka Shido being swallowed by a burst of white light amidst the cry.

"This must be Lingyun calling Itsuka Shido to help; it might have something to do with Takamiya Mio. But you don't need to worry, Takamiya Mio would absolutely never hurt Itsuka Shido," Liuli said. "Right now, what we need to deal with are those pieces of junk in the sky!"

The DEM company airships in the sky, the Wizards, and even the robot troops beside them were all shrouded in a hazy light, clearly having been imbued with Spirit power by Westcott. Having gained Spirit power, their strength was climbing steadily.

"I understand, leave these DEM company armaments to us!" Itsuka Kotori nodded firmly.

"Big Sister Liuli, will Big Brother be alright?" Yoshino asked with some concern.

"You don't need to worry about that. Lingyun is very powerful; he will absolutely not fail, absolutely not!" Liuli said with full confidence.

"Roar—"

The Winged Dragon of Ra let out a roar, its long, slender body twisting as it launched an attack against a DEM company warship in the sky, drawing back the curtain on this battle.

Facing this massive unknown creature, the people of the DEM company, though timid, retaliated without hesitation. As the Winged Dragon of Ra launched its attack, the Giant God Soldier and the Sky Rider also struck simultaneously. The attacks of the three Phantom Gods concentrated on a single point, causing an airship to lose its combat capability almost instantly.

"Let's go, everyone!" Seeing the three Phantom Gods strike, Liuli's figure instantly turned into a blur as she charged toward the DEM company Wizards.

The eleven Spirits present also manifested their Spirit Dresses and Angels, heading toward the robot troops dispatched by the DEM company.

Inside the black world created by Lingyun himself, Lingyun and Westcott hovered in mid-air, looking at each other.

"Swordsman? Lingyun?" A playful smile hung on Westcott's face. "I started paying attention to you the moment you first appeared. I couldn't help it; you were just too peculiar, so peculiar that I couldn't imagine what kind of existence you were at all. Even now, I still don't know what your true form is!"

"So, you started paying attention to me a long time ago?" Lingyun asked.

"That's right. The first time you appeared in this world, the commotion was simply too great, great to the point that even I was astonished. What a powerful Spacequake that was! Ever since the gods disappeared, no one has been able to cause such a powerful Spacequake, not even that Princess! However, that is not what amazed me the most. What amazed me most was that after releasing the Spacequake, you actually pulled it back in. That is simply incredible!" Westcott looked at Lingyun, his gaze burning.

"I don't consider that a good thing. Being targeted by a pervert only makes me feel disgusted," Lingyun said bluntly.

"No, no, no. Although I was very interested in your power before, there is no need for that now. Because I, right now, possess the power of a god!" Westcott said with a wild laugh.

"A god? I don't even know how many so-called gods I've killed!"

Lingyun sneered, his sword pointed at Westcott. Not to mention anything else, even the three Phantom Gods Lingyun had summoned earlier possessed the power known as that of a god in this world!

"Swordsman, let me show you now what the power of a god is!" Westcott spread his hands, and a giant black sphere appeared in the sky. "Extreme Death Altar!"

"Is this the Extreme Death Altar?" Lingyun narrowed his eyes.

This Death Demon King possessed the same ability as Takamiya Mio's Angel of Death; both were existences that controlled death.

Accompanied by Westcott's call, the surface of the sphere rippled and unfolded like a blooming flower bud. From the center of the flower, countless dark particles emanated and splashed toward Lingyun's direction.

Sensing the powerful death energy carried within the dark particles, Lingyun raised an eyebrow. It seemed the power this guy mastered was a tiny bit stronger in attack power than Takamiya Mio's.

"Spirit power? Then let me see whose Spirit power is stronger!" The long sword in Lingyun's hand turned into a ray of light and shot into the sky. "Frozen Puppet! Sky Rider!"

"Hahahaha, do you think you can resist my Extreme Death Altar with the Hermit's Angels?" Westcott said, laughing loudly.

Facing the laughing Westcott, Lingyun's expression remained unchanged. If Yoshino and the Yamai sisters had released their Angels in front of Westcott, they naturally would not have been able to resist Westcott's Extreme Death Altar, but the one releasing these two Angels now was Lingyun!

The moment the two Angels manifested, the temperature of the entire black world plummeted, a fierce wind howled, and countless ice crystals condensed out of the Void.

"Hmm?" Westcott furrowed his brow; he discovered that traces of frost had actually appeared on the surface of his own body.

This situation left Westcott feeling completely bewildered. After all, the power he currently possessed originated from the same source as Takamiya Mio's; why did this power still have an effect on him?

"Wait, what is this?" Just at this moment, Westcott opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen something incredible.

In this black space, a massive ice and snow storm appeared, spanning the entire world. The dark particles drifting out from the Extreme Death Altar were actually influenced by the storm, flying toward it, and were subsequently frozen into ice shards within the storm. Even the Extreme Death Altar above his head began to shake, as if it wanted to fly toward the storm.

"Why can your ice and snow freeze these particles?" Westcott asked, somewhat horrified.

However, Lingyun had no intention of answering him; he merely waved his hand, and Floating Cannons manifested around him.

"Extinction Angel: Light Sword!"

The Floating Cannons around Lingyun fired simultaneously, and countless light cannons bombarded the giant flower bud in the sky.

The light cannons struck the flower bud, causing a violent roar. Successive sparks erupted on the Extreme Death Altar, causing wounds to begin appearing on it.
